Abstract
This paper provides a brief assessment of the metrics for measuring probability, degree, and severity of collisions as applied to autonomous and intelligent systems. Though not exhaustive, this survey evaluates the state-of-the-art of collision metrics, and assesses which are likely to aid in the establishment and support of autonomous system collision modeling. Metrics for both robot arms and mobile robot platforms are evaluated, as are the metrics for virtual models, and nonholonomic physical systems such as mobile robots, ground vehicles, aircraft, and naval vessels.Citation
